Greg Myers Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) The latest issue of our favorite Hot Rod magazine, Hot Rod Deluxe has a full page article on Dragsters in scale. Thanks Mr Boyd. Looks like model cars are making their way back into automotive magazines. Edited March 24, 2016 by Greg Myers
Phirewriter Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Yeah, just as they're taking "models" out of the mag. 2 issues now and I kinda miss parts with appeal. What do they call it now, parts that have appeal? Anyway... Great to see in the pages, our hobby needs to have great articles like that in automotive magazines if not more magazines period. Plus I always like Tim's stuff, for me personally he seems to nail both subject and style of build.
mk11 Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 Yeah, just as they're taking "models" out of the mag... I don't mind that and hope that blond from a few months ago made them pay her extra for the idiotic pose they put her in... mike
Pat Minarick Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) If you guys can find it,Rat Rod Magazine is putting some model car stuff in the magazine, the editor said they want to do more and my put on some contests . Edited March 25, 2016 by Pat Minarick
tim boyd Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Thanks Greg and the rest of you. Glad you liked the article. I just saw it myself (in final print) for the first time earlier today. . If you'd like to see more model stuff in full size mags, it is always helpful to send a note to the Editors of the 1/1 scale mags you read, particularly those Editors who are already running model stuff (HRD has had at least one model car article in each of the last three years....not much, but at least a start). My experience going back nearly 40 years now as a freelancer is that it does not take a lot of reader letters to catch an Editor's attention. Just a suggestion....And "thanks" to Drew Hardin (HRD Editor) for his coverage of model cars when it ties to the appropriate 1/1 scale theme in his mag....TIM PS Gregg/Darryl/Harry - I did get a plug in the article for the ModelCarsMag.com website....:) TB
